I have developed my basic skill and aquired a decent set of basic reloading tools and equipment. I currently load good hunting accuracy, around 1 MOA or a little better in my rifles with an occasional flier. I have reached a point where I want to take my skills to the next level. I am finding good info about things like case neck concentricity and and the finer points of head spacing, neck resizing, neck turning, and the differences in various brands and lots of brass on the web sites of the reloading manufacturers. Can anyone recommend other sources of that kind of information to help me learn to load more precise ammo?

No doubt, the Precision Shooting book listed in post #2 is the best available for most people who are striving to improve their basic loading skills for common uses.

Tubbs' book is good for the intended competetive match shooting audience. So is Ziedeker's if you are willing to dig through the layers of verbage for the occasional scattered kernels of helpful information. (College professors, even those who shoot, do love to hear themselves talk!)

...get the two vol set of HANDBOOK FOR RELOADERS AND SHOOTERS by P.O. Ackley. They are arguably the best treatise on pressure, headspace, cartridges, etc. THey are out of print, but you maybe able to find them at gun shows, or on ebay.
good luck, -West
